Chapter 1082: Chapter 1083: Let me arrange it

As soon as “two hundred bucks” was mentioned, Qi Lanqin hesitated for a moment.

Lin Yue shook her head and said, “Oh you, don’t take money so seriously. Being so stingy, what’s the point of living?”

Only then did Qi Lanqin say, “Okay, okay, I’ll go. Let’s call each other tomorrow.”

“Alright, let’s touch base tomorrow. I’m off to eat now.”

After Lin Yue and her boyfriend left, Feng Kexin immediately complained, “Lanqun, why are you bothering with someone so sharp-tongued?”

Qi Lanqin chuckled and said, “Lin Yue’s just got a bit of a sharp tongue, but she doesn’t really mean any harm. Besides, we’re classmates, so why take it so seriously?”

Feng Kexin rolled her eyes and said, “It’s not about taking it seriously or not. Even if she’s not a bad person, with the way she talks to you, you shouldn’t let her do that. Otherwise, she’ll subconsciously ridicule and bully you.”

Qi Lanqin laughed again and said, “It really doesn’t bother me, just let her talk if she wants to.”

“You really have a good temper.” Feng Kexin shook her head. In school, she was always a rather aloof person.

The two of them had some food and then went shopping, finally returning with full bags.

Back at the Su Family, Feng Kexin arranged a room for Qi Lanqin, right next to hers, and helped her hang up all the clothes in the wardrobe.

Looking at the clothes in the wardrobe, Qi Lanqin’s mouth twitched. There must be over a hundred thousand worth in there, and this kind of wealthy lifestyle really made her uncomfortable.

Did she like it? Such beautiful clothes are definitely appealing to girls, but they’re too expensive. Plus, she never really felt she fit the role of the Princess, so buying these clothes felt like she owed Song Xiaodong a lot.

After shopping, Feng Kexin was a bit tired, and since it was already past mealtime when they got back home, she just had the servants bring the food there instead of eating in the dining room.

“Why are there so many dishes for just the two of us?” Qi Lanqin exclaimed, looking at the table with eight dishes and two soups.

Feng Kexin chuckled lightly and said, “Isn’t this your first time having dinner at the Su Family? Of course, it should be a bit more sumptuous.”

Qi Lanqin said, “But it’s just the two of us, we can’t finish this. It’s such a waste.”

Feng Kexin laughed, “It’s fine, in this big family, there’s waste every day. You’ll get used to it.”

Feng Kexin wasn’t really into extravagance, but in a big family like the Su Family with so many people eating, having such wealth, talking about not wasting anything at all would be too pretentious.

Qi Lanqin’s mouth twitched once again, and she couldn’t help but shake her head. This lifestyle is really… she didn’t even know what to say.

During the meal, Qi Lanqin was cautious at first, but later she relaxed and ate heartily. The food was truly delicious, like something made by a five-star chef, with exquisite ingredients, and many items she’d only seen before but never eaten.

With the mindset of not wasting, she also tried to eat as much as possible. After finishing the meal, Qi Lanqin felt stuffed and slumped on the sofa, not wanting to move at all.

“Brother!” Song Xiaodong walked in at this moment. Feng Kexin immediately went over to greet him.

Qi Lanqin quickly stood up and called, “Big Brother Song,” but she felt so uncomfortable from overeating that she could barely stand.

“What’s wrong with Lanqin?” Song Xiaodong asked in confusion, looking at Qi Lanqin.

Feng Kexin pouted, holding onto Song Xiaodong’s arm, and teased, “Brother, you have a new princess now, so you’re abandoning the old one?”

Song Xiaodong laughed and said, “How could that be? You’re all my princesses. But Lanqin doesn’t look well, let me check.”

Qi Lanqin’s face turned red instantly, and she lowered her head, saying, “I… I just ate too much.”

Seeing Song Xiaodong’s surprised expression, Qi Lanqin felt even more embarrassed and said, “I thought it would be a shame not to eat such delicious food, so I…”

Song Xiaodong suddenly felt a bit sorry and gently said, “Silly girl, you can’t do this anymore.”

“Got it.” Qi Lanqin was too embarrassed to look up at Song Xiaodong.

After chatting a bit, Feng Kexin leaned on Song Xiaodong’s shoulder and said, “Brother, Lanqin really has a good temper. If I were in her shoes, I wouldn’t be able to take it.”

“Oh? What happened today?” Song Xiaodong asked curiously.

Feng Kexin recounted the day’s events and added, “Lanqun has to meet her classmates tomorrow too, and she’s bound to be bullied again.”

Song Xiaodong frowned, and Qi Lanqin quickly said, “Big Brother Song, they don’t mean any harm. Among classmates, there’s no need to weigh every word.”

Song Xiaodong nodded and said, “Lanqun, you really have a kind heart. Alright, if you want to go, just go. I support you.”

“Really?” Qi Lanqin was a bit surprised. She thought with the way Feng Kexin spoke, Song Xiaodong would disagree.

“Of course, it’s not a big deal. However, you should let me know beforehand if you’re going somewhere, so I can arrange for someone to take you.”

“Oh, alright… oh, but that’s not okay. I don’t want my classmates to look at me weirdly.”

Song Xiaodong smiled slightly and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll have the driver take you nearby so no one will see you arrive in our car.”

“Thank you, Big Brother Song.” Qi Lanqin looked grateful. Song Xiaodong was indeed considerate.

“Alright, it’s getting late. You’ve had a tiring day, so get some rest.” Song Xiaodong said as he stood up.

Feng Kexin and Qi Lanqin escorted Song Xiaodong to the door, but Feng Kexin still didn’t want to let go.

Understanding the situation, Qi Lanqin tactfully retreated.

“Brother, you’re really letting Lanqin attend that gathering? I feel she’ll be bullied.”

Song Xiaodong smiled slightly and said, “I’ll make some arrangements. Our Dragon Gate Princess, even if she can’t reveal her identity, will not be easily bullied.”

“I knew you wouldn’t just stand by.” Feng Kexin smiled proudly, then pouted and said, “Brother, you’re not just leaving like this, are you?”

Song Xiaodong chuckled, pulled Feng Kexin into his arms, and said, “That wouldn’t do.” Then he kissed her lips.
